WHITE BALANCE

Using the White Balance function, you can select a setting that

matches the light illuminating the subject you are shooting (Daylight,

Fluorescent, etc.) or let the camcorder make all adjustments

automatically. Based on your selection, the camcorder automatically

adjusts the color of the subject so the colors in your recording look

natural.

Select the Record (

/

) mode by pressing the MODE button.

Understanding White Balance:

The White Balance (WB) function removes unrealistic color casts,

so that objects which appear white are rendered white in your

photo. Proper white balance has to take into account the “color

temperature” of a light source, which refers to the relative warmth

or coolness of white light produced by the light source.
